ADJUSTABLE BRACKET FOR- CURTAIN-FTXTURES.

bracket which is easily adjusted to curtain fixtures of varying lengthsso that the en tire bracket will not have to be removed in order to beadapted to different lengths of fixure.

My invention is also adapted to the use of a support for drapery poleswhich may be adjusted to various heights without disturbing the fixture.

I accomplish these objects bythe devices shown in accompanying,drawings, in which- Figure 1, is a front elevation; Fig. 2, a

sectional view on the line 1-2, Fig. 1;-

Figs. 3, 4:, 5, and 6, perspective viewsjof parts of my invention; Fig.7 is a perspective view of one of the supports A showing the shaderoller bracket applied thereto, and Fig. 8 is an inverted perspectiveview of a slightly modified form of support A.

Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the various drawings.

In Fig. 1, A A, are supports adapted to be fastened permanently to thecasing of a window, and having the bands (Z d, Fig. 6, to receive thebrackets 79 0 supporting the curtain roller B, which is an ordinaryspring roller or other similar type.- The brackets 19 c are held inplace upon the supports A A by the bands d d which pass around the faceof the supports A A (see Fig. 7), and are turned back on the oppositeside of the supports about 3; inch (see Figs. 2 and 8). The shadebrackets Z2, 0, are each provided with right angularly extending basesR, R, which are adapted to be positioned between the bands OZ, 0?, andthe supports A, for holding said brackets in position upon the supports.The base portions of said brackets are curved slightly, as shown at 4,and the extreme ends thereof are cut so asto provide cutting edges 5.

As shown in Fig. 7, the band 0! is moved I, ETTA BURGOYNE, a-

over thefcurved portion f of the shade bracket,-"wlien itis desired torigidly secure said bracket in positionupon the sup port A, thuscausii'ig the cutting edge 5 of the base Rte bite into the surface ofthe support A toreliably hold the shade bracket lar in form and aredepressed at the points marked X X X, seeFigs. 7 and 8, also sectionalview Fig. 2 on line 1 and 2. The brackets A each consistofa horizontalportion 2, and a vertically disposed portion 1,, formed integrally witheach other. These points have small holes e e 6 through which anordinary brass headed tack secures them to casing.

Figs. 3 and 4 show the right and left hand brackets respectively, whichhold the (shown in Fig. 4) has a hole V and the left hand bracket a slotS for the projecting me tallic end of curtain roller 13. F

It will readily be seen from the drawings that through c e the supportsare fastened to a window casing. They need not be moved thereafter forvarying lengths of roller so that in case "of houses rented tosuccessive tenants it will not be necessary varying lengths of roller.All that will be necessary is to remove the brackets be,

slide the bands to theproper positionuntil they are adapted tolengthofrroller used and replace bracket between bands and support, and thefixture is, complete.

Another portion of my invention adapted to be used in combination withshade roller support is an adjustable support for a drapery pole as seenin Figs. 1 and 2. In these figures C represents a pole used to This poleis held in place by the bracket J which is adjusted i to support A onits vertical section by passing the slide F (as will be seen insectional drawing Fig. 2) between band M and support .A, securingbracket {to support. The

perpendicular section of the support permits the vertical adjustment ofpole C to suit draperies of varying lengths.
